Summit Metal Fabricators was contracted by Algonquin Power to repair and replace gates and a surge tower (penstock) at their hydro-electric dam in Milton, NH.

Summit Metal Fabricators designed, fabricated and installed head gates, waste gates and a surge tower based on drawings supplied by Algonquin. The surge tower was fabricated from galvanized steel, 35 feet tall and 8 feet across. On-site welding repairs on fire line pipes (10” and 36”) were performed as well.

The head gates were fabricated to exact tolerances and were equipped with brass fittings and bushings.
